0.000 HBDThat's how I would explain how rockets fly using Newton's third law: ### The action: The rocket throws tons of fuel in the opposite direction of flight. ### The reaction: The rocket accelerates in the direction of flight and gets faster. ##### → Nothing else is needed to explain why rockets fly! . ###### Now tell me: Is there a flaw in my explanation? (If yes give me a simple explanation of it, please. The explanations in the video seem counter-intuitive to me.) A flaw in those five lines should be easy to find for you, right?
